[Opinions] Esther and Ruth
Do you like Esther and Ruth?
For middle names I was thinking Esther Rose and Ruth Leah. I like Ruthie for a nickname.

They are classic, biblical name modeled after awesome women, and I like them!I like the nickname, Essie for Esther and just Ruth for Ruth. The middle names go well with Esther and Ruth."Rejoice evermore. In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you."

I don't care for Esther's sound, but Ruth is sweetly old-fashioned to me.Ruth Leah is a beautiful combo imo. But Esther Rose doesn't flow very well to me because of the R ending of Esther and the R beginning of Rose; also, Rose is a very common mn today--in fact, it's often classified as a filler mn.

I love both. Ester Hadassah is 1 of my fave combos. I don't have a combo for Ruth, though

I like both names, nice Biblical names. I like the combo Esther Rose, but I'd prefer Ruth Emily, or something else to Ruth Leah.

Esther Rose & Ruth Leah are great. Ruthie is cute. I also like Esther Rosa & Esther Raisel (rie-zul or ray-zul).

I love seeing names make a comeback. Having said that, Ruth has never been a personal favorite of mine, but it's still good to see it considered by others.I really like Esther. I'm suprised it hasn't come back as fast as some other names. It seems to me that Esther Ruth makes a nice combination.

I love them both. I think a longer middle name would suit Ruth better. How about Ruth Hannah or Ruth Lilian? ~~~~Kai~~~~

I like them separately, but together they are just very....Biblical. :b Almost theme-y is what I mean, I guess.

I really don't like either of these names, sorry.
Esther is very difficult to say, imo and Ruth is just one of my least favorite names.
